Walking back to your car after dark? Keys in hand before you step out, eyes up as you approach, and doors locked once you're in. Park near the entrance in a lit spot when you can. #Chicago#DriveSafe
Chicago winter prep: keep your tank at least half full, stash a scraper, blanket, charger and flashlight in the trunk, and leave extra time. Slow roads feel calmer when the car is ready. #Chicago#WinterDriving
Bumped from behind at night and something feels off? Keep doors locked, signal, and drive slowly to a busy, well-lit spot before getting out. Call 911 and tell them where you're headed. #Chicago#DriveSafe
For a lot of drivers, the hardest part of a night out isn't the drive. It's parking and the walk to the door. ShieldNav's Parking Safety check shows reported incidents near where you're headed before you arrive. Free 7-day trial on iPhone: apps.apple.com/us/app/shieldn…#Chicago
Clocks fall back Sun, Nov 1, so more of your drive happens after dark. Headlights on before sunset, ease off under L tracks and viaducts (people are hard to see), and park in a lit spot near the entrance. #Chicago#WinterDriving
Late-night tip: when your light turns green, pause a beat and look left, right, left before you go. Empty cross streets at night are where red-light runners speed through. One second, worth it. #DriveSafe#Chicago
Gas after dark: pick a busy, well-lit station on a main road, fill up before you're near empty, use the pump closest to the lights, lock the car while you pump, pay at the pump and keep your eyes up. Quick and easy. ⛽ #SafeDriving#Chicago
@IDOTDistrict1 Heads up if you take Harlem through Riverside on weekday commutes: set your Ogden / First Ave detour before you leave Monday so you're not rerouting on the fly.
@NWSChicago Early drivers south of I-80: give yourself a few extra minutes Sunday morning to clear frost off every window and both side mirrors before you pull out. Bridges and overpasses can get slick first.
At night, many of us skip the quiet shortcut for the busier, better-lit road, even if it adds a few minutes. ShieldNav shows your route options side by side with safety info on each, so you can pick the one you feel good about. Try it free: shieldnav.com#ChicagoDriving
Turned around after dark? Set your route before you pull out. Need your phone? Pull into a busy, well-lit lot first. ShieldNav shows safety info on each route before you go. Try it free: shieldnav.com#ChicagoDriving#DriveSafe
Someone walks up to your window at a red light? Usually it's nothing. Doors locked, window up, room to pull away, eyes up. Feel threatened? Use your horn and call 911 when safe.
